It's like saying will she go to the petting zoo or Easter toy shopping
Considering both of these usually involve bunnies, I think they'd both count as Hell for Anya.
You do well to flee, townspeople! I will pillage your lands and dwellings! I will burn your crops and make merry sport with your more attractive daughters! Ha ha ha! Mark my words! Ooh! Ale! I smell delicious ale!

Is it better the second time around? Or the third? Or tenth? This is the place to come when you have a burning desire to talk about an old episode that was just re-run.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Uncoincidentally, that's my point.

I kind of want to change my tag to Opressress.
You should, Perkins. I was gonna change mine and I think we ought to still have an Opressress.
Anya was human then demon then human then demon then human (is that right?) butI don't think she was ever Christian. So by Christian heaven rules she wouldn't get in. Right?
Now, heaven as in where Buffy was when she was dead the second time, maybe Anya would get in. I'm trying to think of examples of people who we know were in hell who didn't have it as part of a contract or the direct consequence of a particular action, but it's hard.

Well, that gets really complex, but we don't have to go to complexville, because the verse didn't provide for the full theology. A fairly orthodox train of thought in Christianity is that people who have never heard of God (and some would extend that to people who have never heard of God in a way in which they are able to know/believe in Him), but have served God as to the extent God has reveal Himself to them (in nature, and in the conscience), is not damned.
If we look at the fruits of Anya's life, we see she repented (turned from) from her demonosity, and she fought against evil and for good, which would be seen as serving God in a "Those who are not against us are for us" kind of way.

I can concede that.
Do we know of anyone who has died and gone to hell besides Darla?

Angel went to Hell, but he didn't die. He got sucked into Hell. Buffy went to Hell with Lily/Anne, but she didn't die to get there. Was that place Skip guarded, where that Billy character was a Hell?

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
